Same so tempted to buy

Uses batteries and you need to connect it to your phone or tablet via Bluetooth for the bell to sound/work

This only will ring on your mobile /tablet, providing you have good wifi signal. Some ppl complaining it takes ages before it will connect to your mobile, when someone pressed bell button. Battery life is also so-so. Considering low price i think i might get one to try

ordered one. I like gadgets far to much to pass up on one haha. I wonder if I could just connect it to the existing mains supplies to my door bell button already in place....?

perhaps not this model, but can you pick up the video feed when away from home on your mobile? is there a popular tried n tested model that offers little lag?

Fck it i am ordering one, if its anywhere near as good as the Xiaomi camera i got the other week i will be more than happy

The Xiaomi camera is a beast

I've got one. Don't bother. It's got a speaker which rings when somebody presses the button, but if you're in your house and your phone isn't with you then you won't know anybody is there. Plus it takes 4x AAs so don't expect it to last long. Picture quality is ok though

New to the concept and four Qs immediately spring to mind: Is the camera's view angled to allow capture of the caller's body rather than the caller's arm?How is it secured against theft?Presumably descriptions of "P2P Store" and "wherever you are, you can always know who's knocking your door" implies the owner can access the live image from any net-connected location?If the videos are stored on camera, is a microSD / TF card included?Thanks.

Check the output on 4 AA batteries and check the output on your bell transformer

A bit of soldering and jobs a good un

the reason I didn't get this was (from what I could read) no PIR sensor
